  1. JCP Support for Schools Laura Jubb Nottingham Central JCP

  2. Introduction to Support for Schools A manifesto commitment in 2015 (The Gatsby Benchmarks) brought in to effect. Ian Duncan Smith had the idea to put JCP advisers in schools. Intended to assist schools in England with a tailored and bespoke service complimenting the provision already available. To provide high quality, independent & impartial careers advice for school years 8 – 13 (12 – 18 years) This offer is demand-led and is free to access.

  3. How will this role ‘Add Value’ to what’s already available We know there is a wealth of support out there and do not want to duplicate or replace it, we want to compliment it. We want our offer to be as flexible and responsive as possible, complementing what schools already have in place. Provide advice on routes into Traineeships & Apprenticeships Help to source and advise on work experience opportunities Provide advice on the local labour market (including soft skills that employers value)

  4. What support can we offer? JCP Support can look different in each participating school Help with completing the job application process, CVs, mock interviews Attending Careers/Jobs Fairs & giving information & advice – I am NOT allowed to give guidance Labour market up-skilling for pupils and/or teachers/parents Arranging employer/provider talks at assemblies Group sessions

  5. What are the workshops we offer? I have devised & written several Power Points including: Traineeships Apprenticeships What is a cover letter & how to write one Completing application forms CV – What is it? How do I write one? Where do I start? Social Media –Twitter/Facebook/LinkedIn/ – what is it – how do I use it to find work? Self Awareness – Why is this important? Interview Techniques Employability Skills Labour Market Information JCP Skills2Succeed information

  6. What’s happening at the moment? I have engaged with 30+ schools within Nottingham – mock interviews, CV sessions, application forms, self awareness workshops, LMI workshops, Apprenticeships, Work Experience placements, Careers Fairs etc I have written a generic LMI presentation with a local quiz along with specific area information on growth sectors in each area to use in presentations looking also at skills shortages. I have networked with local employers to persuade them to support me to help prevent students from becoming NEET either by involvement in mock interviews or work experience placements. Working together with HMRC to help deliver Tax Facts Resource.
